Well I talk to the guy today and told him the deal and he said to put about 3 ounces of trans fluid in each lylinder thru the plug hole and let it sit over night and to try it the tomarrow but, I don't think it's going to work. It did get softer for that par tof the turn but it still stops like it did before .

oscareltemblo · 04-26-2006, 07:19 PM

Update.... Today I went and got the other motor this one is in way better shape and it's not corroded looks like everything is better. Oh Im trying to post pics can someone show me please maybe photo bucket but, I never used it before. thanks.

Street & Performance makes headers for LS1 swaps...

chevy_fatman · 08-30-2006, 09:00 PM

So, how's that swap coming along?

oscareltemblo · 08-30-2006, 10:42 PM

It's good, the engine is in the trans is also in just need the odds and ends like fuel line trans lines and drive shaft shortend and my dilema the custom fabbed headers.

sixty8c10 · 08-31-2006, 01:15 AM

keep up the good work

oscareltemblo · 09-24-2006, 09:45 PM

Hey guys just an update I'm still troubleshooting my header situation, my problem is the mount's. Most manifolds hit the mount's so I'm going to go with a different style mount like these; http://www.performanceonline.com/sto...cat=455&page=1 hopefully it will sove my issues since they are sitting lower.

Your old driveshaft didn't work? I was amazed to see that my 3-on-tree driveshaft was a perfect fit for my T56

oscareltemblo · 09-29-2006, 12:04 AM

My old drive shaft will work I just need to cut it.
